Free Speech For All?

Submitted by Nick in Virginia, Sep 30, 2007 07:52

First, I hadn't know that Marvin Stewart of the MinuteMen was black. Second, I had not read anywhere that the so-called progressive Columbia students had "shouted the N-word repeatedly " during his presentation. I don't want to sound overly sensitive here, but if a group of conservative college students had been shouting the N-word at a speaker, don't you think that would have meritted several days worth of national news coverage?

Things are getting worse all the time in this country, and the Islamofascists, who are psychotic hatemongers but are not stupid, are observing and taking notes, to see how they can develop strategies to take us down from within as much as they can.
